'Stars' Set Up?

I don’t watch Dancing With The Stars, but I do get updates about it through the various entertainment news updates I follow and watch. Before the first episode aired I heard the line up of the celebrities participating in this new season.

Uh, hello?

Yeah, a few of the ‘stars’ they got to participate are interesting choices, but a couple don’t seem that fair. I thought having Nicole Scherzinger and Evan Lysacek were a little more than obvious as having an advantage in this particular contest. A chick from a girl music group who has dealt with music video and live performance choreography, and a dude who is an Olympic figure skater? Doesn’t seem all that fair to me, but what the hell do I know?

Oh, and the last update I viewed was saying that the very first episode left those exact two in the first and second places in the contest.

So surprised…

It seems that the entertainment draw of that show would be selecting stars that are famous for something very different than being someone who performs on a professional level in dancing or ice skating on a regular basis.

But I may just be talking out my ass because I don’t run the show, I don’t even watch it. I’ll just keep getting my updates here and there, and if (and when) either Scherzinger or Lysacek win this competition I’ll sit back in non-surprise, rolling my eyes.
